GETTING STARTED

Installing the Battery

To install the Battery:

1.  Place the battery onto the rear of the phone (1).

2.  Push the battery towards the catch until it clicks into place (2).

3.  Make sure the battery is properly installed.

To remove the Battery:

1.  Switch off the power before removing the battery.

2.  Press the locking catch at the top of the battery and slide the battery
    down and off the phone.

Battery Charge Indication

The vertical bar to the right of the indicator B on the right side of the
phone display shows the battery charge level.  The higher the bar, the more
power left in the battery.

Charging a Battery

1.  Install the battery and connect the charger to the base of the phone.

2.  Connect the charger to an appropriate power source.  Segments of the
    battery indicator bar on the right-hand side of the display will start
    scrolling and a confirmation tone is simultaneously emitted.

You can use the phone during the charging, but the charging process will
be interrupted for the duration of the call.

3.  After the segments of the battery indicator bar stop scrolling and the
    bar is entirely displayed, the battery is fully charged.

4.  Disconnect the charger from the outlet and phone.

    Battery charging times depend on the type of battery and charger used.
    Battery operation times depend greatly on how you use the batteries,
    as well as on the coverage of the network and network parameters set by
    the cellular service provider.

NOTE:  If the battery is too hot or cold, the charging may be interrupted
       until the battery reaches its normal operating temperature.

Discharging a Battery

A battery lasts longer and performs better if allowed to discharge fully
from time to time.  You can do this by leaving the phone switched on until
the phone turns off automatically after the battery has been completely
discharged.  Alternatively, you may use the battery discharge feature of
any approved accessory available for your phone.  Do not attempt to dis-
charge the battery by any other means.

Recharging a Battery

When the battery charge is low and only a few minutes of talk time remain,
a warning tone will be given and the message BATTERY LOW will be repeated
at regular intervals on the display.

When the battery charge level is too low for the phone to operate, the RE-
CHARGE BATTERY message will be displayed and a warning tone will be given
before the phone automatically switches itself off (after about 10 seconds).

NOTE:  If the silent service has been selected, only the display messages
       appear.

Recharge the battery as described above in the section Charging a Battery.

Using Batteries

  A new battery must be fully charged before being used for the first time.

  A new battery will provide full performance only after two or three com-
  plete charge and discharge cycles.

  Use only batteries and chargers approved by the phone manufacturer.  When
  a charger is not in use, disconnect it form the power source. Do not leave
  the battery connected to a charger from longer than a week, since over-
  charging may shorten the life.  If left unused, a fully charged battery
  will discharge itself in about a week.

  When the battery is not in use, store it uncharged in a cool and dark
  place.

  The battery is a sealed unit with no serviceable parts.  Do not attempt
  to open the case.
